I was thinking of buying a replica bumper for my eg. does anyone have one?? are similar to actual oem?? and do they paint well?? If anyone has used one just give me some info and post pix if youve painted one.

 

fitment is usually poor but it really all depends on brands sometimes. you get what you pay for. btw you can still buy oem bumper covers from honda or a parts store

 

I recently put one on an EG for a buddy. It wasnt bad for the price. I think I paid around $40 at dealer cost. Fitment was good. I havent painted it yet though.

 

we use aftermarket bumpers all the time for customers who dont want to pay for oem, relatively cheap like everyone has said. its hit or miss with fitment. weve sent some back before that were horrible, and recieved ones that fit perfect. you get what you pay for 50 percent of the time, ha.

 

Word..... thanx for the input. So is it the same for all replica body parts like fenders and hoods, hit or miss??

 

yes same thing

 

I picked mine of from the local used honda/acura dealer. Rear bumper went on nicely. Front bumper took a little work with a heat gun to help the bottom clear the radiator support, but overall happy for only spending $30 a piece on them. The maker is called CertiFit I believe.

 

ya The ones I get are certifit as well.
